P.S. You know, I woulda guessed Chris's top five completely differenty. Here's what I would have thought would be on it: 1. Ballad of the Green Beret 2. Something by Johny Mathis - I mean, c'mon, isn't that what old folks play when they wanna get some? 3. Something by Willie Nelson - cause, you know, I like to imagine that there really is more to ol' Chris than we get to see! 4. Wagner - Die Walküre. I'm pretty sure that Chris does love the smell of napalm in the morning... 5. Jim Neighbors sings your favorite Patriotic songs... or something like that... 1. Decent Tune 2. Not no, but HELL NO! Old people maybe... I aint old though  Personally, Anita Baker gets me laid around this humble abode.3. OOF! Willie Nelson? Nah, but if required to take a redneck selection, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet or even The Outlaws would fill the bill. 4. WTF is this shit? 5. Jim Neighbors? Really? You would think i would own this POS? Go have yourself spanked already! JEEZ!  _____________________

It's just that my enjoyment of Whitesnake is ironic, not genuine. Interesting Concept lol Dont feel bad... I have "17" by Winger in mine. _____________________

If I were going to pick a guitar based album I'd have to take
Classical Gas - Tribute album by Tommy Emmanuelle (and only because I can't remember what album Mason's original was on.....) Siggy. _____________________

Joni Mitchell - Hejira
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Visions of the Emerald Beyond (or maybe Birds of Fire instead) Morphine - Cure For Pain Porcupine Tree - Lightbulb Sun (or Stupid Dream) Grace - Jeff Buckley And because I could never live with just five, here's five more I'd sneak... Four Calendar Cafe - Cocteau Twins Low - Trust Misplaced Childhood - Marillion Pentangle - Pentangle Aja - Steely Dan edit: oops, I forgot Blind by the Sundays. Aw hell, I can't live with just five, or ten, or 50. Shoot me now _____________________

So, Chris, I guess you and the wife would turn down my invitation to come over, toss a few Soy-Boy Not-Dogs on the ol' grill, pop open a few of my Organic Lager Homebrews (good batch this time - very hopsy!) and just chill out to the melodic tunes of the Grateful Dead at Harper's College?

Bleh! I've done search after search for this song and no one seems to have it. Maybe I was the only one who liked it. C'mon people, get some music I want to steal on your HDs!

C'mon people, get some music I want to steal on your HDs! If it's XTC, I have it. My list is probably a bit out of date, as I haven't been updating it in a while due to lack of DJing, but.. clicky. Note: This is not solicitation for people to beg me for mp3s, requests for such will probably be ignored. _____________________
